Discussion of “Prediction, Estimation, and Attribution” by Bradley Efron

Jerome Friedman, Trevor Hastie and Robert Tibshirani

International Statistical Review, 2020, vol. 88, issue S1, S73-S74

Abstract: Professor Efron has presented us with a thought‐provoking paper on the relationship between prediction, estimation, and attribution in the modern era of data science. While we appreciate many of his arguments, we see more of a continuum between the old and new methodology, and the opportunity for both to improve through their synergy.
